Hugs back atcha! I've never taken a sleep aid before but what you describe is what happened to me with melatonin. Eeek! MANY HUGS!!!
My last round of bloodwork was okay, so I suspect it is probably last 9-12 mos that it dropped. With gastric bypass, it is very hard for the body to absorb liver, since the duodenum is part of the old route and not new construction. The supplements...well...I haven't been great about taking them, as they're very hard on my stomach, so I've been relying on the iron in my multivitamin and food. Clearly that wasn't the right choice :(
I've been anemic various times in my life, in teenhood, but I always bounced back easily, Then again, way pre gastric bypass.
